HOLE 1 PRO TIP: A short, dog-leg left, par-four opening hole. A drive close to the left-hand bunker will leave a mid-to-short iron to a green that cannot be missed on the right. This hole should present a decent birdie opportunity, providing you avoid the water on the right! Ideal Line

HOLE 2 PRO TIP: Laranjal’s signature hole, which features a giant, beach-style bunker and can play anything from a driver to a mid-iron depending on the tee and pin positions. A par is a great score. Ideal Line

HOLE 3 PRO TIP: This brilliant par-four requires a good drive to carry the stream that crosses the fariway. The approach shot is played uphill to a slightly elevated and difficult green where a two-putt par is a very good result. Ideal Line

HOLE 4 PRO TIP: Position your tee shot between the fairway bunkers and, for the longer hitters, beware of the stream that crosses the fairway. This will leave a mid-iron approach to another difficult green. Ideal Line

HOLE 5 PRO TIP: A good drive played to the left side of the fairway will still require a lengthy second shot to an elevated, narrow green that is 45 metres long. The left-hand greenside bunkers are a no-go area while simply hitting the green is unlikely to guarantee a par. A tremendous hole that deserves its high difficulty rating. Ideal Line

HOLE 7 PRO TIP: This strong par-five will live long in the memory. Hit your tee shot close to the bunkers on the left and your second shot short of the lake in front of the green, to leave a short-iron to a well-designed green that slopes towards the water on the left. Ideal Line

HOLE 11 PRO TIP: Either play short of the cross bunkers or try to carry them with your tee shot. The key to this hole is playing the second shot from the fairway, which should set up a birdie opportunity. Ideal Line

HOLE 15 PRO TIP: Another elevated tee shot. The drive needs to be played left of centre to hold a fairway that slopes from left-to-right, with bunkers ready to swallow up anything played right of centre. Aim left with the second shot to leave a mid-to-short iron to a green well protected by bunkers.

HOLE 18 PRO TIP: The goal on this reachable par-five is to hit your tee shot as close to the water as possible to leave the best angle to attack the green or to lay up. This is a superb risk and reward finishing hole which will decide the winners and losers of almost every tournament played at Laranjal. Ideal Line
